The way we have it set up now (Land Desktop 2005), we have:
W:\2005\2105001\Dwgs\C_Database
W:\2005\2105002\Dwgs\C_Database
The first folder is the year, the second is the project number, the third is
the drawings location and the C_Database folder contains all of the
alignments, surfaces, etc... that Land Desktop creates.
The MAIN reason we have it this way is so that when a project folder is
archived, all of the alignments, surfaces, etc.. will be archived along with
everything related to that project. The project folder (2105002 for
example) would also have other information: specs, emails, RFIs, addendums,
the CD drawings, etc...
Now if the NEW way is to have one main folder with the projects as the
various sub-folders then that's fine - we'll have to adapt. BUT, if there's
any way to mimick our current set up, that would be better for us. Are we
going to have to change our stubborn ways??!?
In our office, the project folder is setup by the IT department and
restrictions are placed on who can or cannot create folders/subfolders.
We're somewhat limited.
